Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without remainder. In daily life, we use factors for tasks like sharing items equally, arranging things, etc. In this topic, we will learn about the factors of 67, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 67 evenly are known as factors of 67. A factor of 67 is a number that divides the number without remainder. The factors of 67 are 1 and 67. Negative factors of 67: -1 and -67. Prime factors of 67: 67 (since 67 is a prime number itself). The sum of factors of 67: 1 + 67 = 68
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods: Finding factors using multiplication Finding factors using the division method Prime factors and Prime factorization
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 67. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 67 is the multiplication method. Step 1: Multiply 67 by 1, 67 × 1 = 67. Since 67 is a prime number, there are no other pairs. Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 67 are: (1, 67). For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given number by whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and listing the numbers that result in whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method - Step 1: Divide 67 by 1, 67 ÷ 1 = 67. Step 2: As 67 is a prime number, no other whole number divisions will result in a whole number until 67 ÷ 67 = 1. Therefore, the factors of 67 are: 1 and 67.
The factors can be found by dividing with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods: Using prime factorization Using a factor tree Using Prime Factorization: Since 67 is a prime number, it cannot be broken down further into other prime factors. Therefore, 67 is its own prime factor.
A factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. For 67, since it is a prime number, the factor tree is simple: 67 67 is a prime number, so it cannot be broken down further. Factor Pairs Two numbers that are multiplied to give a specific number are called factor pairs. Both positive and negative factors constitute factor pairs. Positive factor pairs of 67: (1, 67). Negative factor pairs of 67: (-1, -67).
Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.
There are 67 students and 1 teacher. How can the teacher divide the students into equal groups?
The teacher can have 1 group of 67 students or 67 groups of 1 student each.
To divide the students equally, the teacher can only use the factors of 67, which are 1 and 67.
A farmer has 67 apple trees and wants to plant them in such a way that each row has the same number of trees. What are his options?
The farmer can plant 1 row of 67 trees or 67 rows of 1 tree each.
To plant the trees equally, the farmer can only use the factor pairs of 67, which are (1, 67).
A library has 67 books and wants to arrange them on shelves. How many ways can the library do this evenly?
The library can place all 67 books on one shelf or place 1 book on each of 67 shelves.
The library can arrange the books using the factors of 67, which are 1 and 67.
Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 67 are 1 and 67. Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 67 is the prime factor of itself. Factor pairs: Two numbers in a pair that are multiplied to give the original number are called factor pairs. For example, the factor pair of 67 is (1, 67). Prime Number: A number greater than 1 with no divisors other than 1 and itself. For example, 67 is a prime number. Negative Factors: Negative counterparts of the factors. For example, the negative factors of 67 are -1 and -67.
